HEADLIGHT Co., Ltd., which runs 200 beauty salons nationwide, will hold a "Kumamoto Charity Cut" at HEADLIGHT ACADEMY Shibuya on October 22, 2026 (Thursday) as part of its social contribution activities. The company announced it on October 7.
The company positions it as an effort to wish for the earliest possible recovery from the Kumamoto earthquake that occurred in July 2026. It will offer beauty services such as cuts and head spa, and donate the contributions it receives from participants to the Kumamoto earthquake relief fund of Kumamoto Prefecture.
Three menus of cut, head spa and shampoo blow, performed by the company's stylists
Three menus are offered: cut, head spa and shampoo blow, all performed by the company's stylists. Each menu takes one hour.
The company explains that it came up with this event wondering whether the everyday "time to become beautiful" itself could be turned into support for society. It aims to spread a circle of support through beauty.
Donations go into a box after the service; book through Hot Pepper Beauty
For donations, participants put an amount of their choosing into the donation box at the reception after the service. The press release does not state a price for the service.
Reservations are accepted on the Hot Pepper Beauty page of HEADLIGHT ACADEMY Shibuya. The venue's phone number is 03-6427-9977.
The event is for one day only, with reception hours from 10:00 to 17:00.
